A Simple Girl in a Complex World

i’m also considering putting this blog to rest especially after the wedding (probably will put down both blogs) but this does not mean I’m leaving forever! I have a special suprise in the works so stay tuned!

Hi everyone, I really doubt I still have any more readers because it has been so long since I have posted anything, I apologize really please come back and read me!

My excuse this time is that I have been busy with finishing up school and moving down to Alabama and just spending time with J and meeting new people and having a nice time. I really do apologize! I hope everyone will come back and read me.

In the mean time I have now compiled my wedding blog and its over at blogger because it has more designs so I used it, so you can go visit it and read about the wedding plans although there is not much there right now. But I PROMISE to update more often on both blogs!

Jessica (The Army Wife) tagged me on this

Here’s how you play: Once you’ve been tagged you have to write a blog with 10 weird, random facts, habits, or goals about yourself– at the end choose 5 people to be tagged. Don’t forget to leave them a comment saying (You’re It!) and to go read your blog. You cannot tag the person that tagged you. So since you can’t tag me back let me know when you are done so that I can go read YOUR blog answers

****Instead of actually tagging five people I think I’ll just let each one of you who reads this leave me one interesting or odd fact about yourself! I think its more fun that way!

1. I watch Friends every night before I go to bed & I’ve seen them all atleast 6 times!

2. I sneeze when I eat too much and get full, I dont know if it’s an allergy or not, the only thing we can really attribute it to is being full. My grandfather and my mother do the same thing!

3. I have moved 5 times in my life. 4 of them within the last 9 years.

4. I always thought I wanted an outdoor wedding in the spring/summer; but once I found the person that I truly wanted to spend the rest of my life with none of that mattered anymore, it was just about getting to marry him!

5. Christmas is my favorite time of year so it’s fitting that I’m getting married December 20th!

6. I hate feet and even hate my own when my toenails arent painted!

7. I always wanted to be an interior designer when I was younger; I still try to do my best without the degree!

8. I cant keep a suprise a suprise I always come up with really great suprises but everyone who knows me always finds a way to get them out of me or I’ll just tell them because I cant keep it inside long enough!

9. I dont like to have finger nail polish on my fingernails (colored polish; natural colors are ok)

10. I have no problem with wanting to be “June Cleaver” I enjoy those types of things; but its kind of ironic that I have an above perfect score in my women’s studies class right now which is about how women shouldnt be thought of like that!

OK thats my list I hope you learned something new about me that you might not have known!

Remember to leave me your interesting/odd fact!

Once again I’m sorry I suck so much at posting lately! I’ve been so busy with school its unreal so I’m trying to catch up and try and not plan a wedding since I really cant! DUMB ARMY! I swear I have some downtime this week so I’ll post a few times!

In other news Im considering starting a wedding blog but I’m not sure yet. I’ll let yall know if I do!

Ok so I wrote earlier in the week that I applied to be off on Saturday so I could leave a day early, well guess what I got it off, but now they are calling for a MAJOR winter storm here in KY,TN, and parts of AL! WTF!? It’s March people! Spring break means sun, sand and warm not freakin winter! SO this could potentially not only put me out of a day’s pay but prevent me from leaving until Sunday after all!

I have been praying that it doesnt happen at all, the last time they said something like this was going to happen the entire state freaked out and closed EVERYTHING and I do mean Everything down! AND wouldnt ya know I’ve seen worse ice in my refridgerator than I did on the roads that entire day! So Bill Meck I’m really praying you are WRONG WRONG WRONG! If I wake up in the morning to go to work and see 6 inches of snow on the ground I will curse the ground anyone who ever said they wanted it to snow tomorrow and Saturday!

*sigh* I really hate the weather, it always seems to ruin something for me! After working so hard to convince my parents to let me go and then paying a large amount of money to get my car ready for the trip THIS comes up! How freakin great is that?! Just my luck! In the words of Rachel Green from Friends “Isnt that just kick you in the crotch, spit on your neck fantastic?!”

Ok guys I’m sorry I’m done just PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE Pray for me and that there will NOT be a BLIZZARD or any bad weather for that matter for the next 3 days!

*side note: if there is bad weather I’ll be sure to take a picture of it to show you guys, you’ll probably hear me bawling all the way from where you loverly people are*

Hey everyone I know that I havent wrote a new post in awhile now! I apologize I’ve just been uber busy with school they always swamp you right before spring break! I despize them for this and I’ve recently began to hate school, I really wish I was done but to my demise I am not! Shew!

Speaking of spring break! Only 8 days until I get to see my honey again! I’m so ecstatic its not even funny! I’m also excited because my parents who are highly over protective have finally realized that I am 21 years old and they need to let me go and grow up! I am getting married next year after all and so yeah they arent happy that I’ll be going all that way by myself but there isnt much they can do about it and I appreciate all the girls that gave me such great advice!

I think with this trip alone I will have LOTS of time to think about things and just relax which I havent had a chance to do in about 2 months! So it will be nice! I hope to bring back lots of pictures from my trip and I’m also on the hunt for a cute bikini I havent bought a new one in like 3 years so I think it’s time for a new one thank goodness for the VS mix and matches! I saw one on Le Petit Chic’s blog that is REALLY cute I wonder if she’d let me steal the idea!? The bandue top will be good for my small boobies! LOL! I hope to come back and say I’m engaged I’m engaged I’m engaged in true Monica Gellar fashion!

I will most likely post a few more times before I leave so this will not be my last post before SB 08′! I have been keeping up with you girls blogs so dont worry I havent forgotten about you all!

Well as I mentioned in my previous post I got my rings that I wanted (the square one) but what I did not anticipate was a sizing problem! Where I had ordered them off the internet without actually being able to see them in person I had no clue the diamonds wrapped all the way around the bands so there is no way I can resize them without damaging the ring and all the tiny diamonds falling out. So……

I got a new ring! I really wish I’d seen this one before! It’s gorgeous and I got a better deal on it than the first set! I’m so in love with it I swear I think it’s 10000xxxx better than the first set and I cannot wait to wear them!  J doesnt know that I already picked out and ordered another ring but he wont care as long as I get a full refund for the other set! The new ring should be here next week sometime I hope! I cant wait! I’ve been a giddy little girl all day and cant stop staring at it’s picture! EEP!

Ok here are some pictures!

I’m so much more excited about these rings than the others! I cant wait to show them off! I think J will also like this set better!

 I hope everyone has a great weekend! Mine will be filled with work and homework!

1.NAMES

If Laurie, Linda, Elizabeth and Barbara go out for lunch, they will call each other Laurie, Linda, Elizabeth and Barbara.

If Mark, Chris, Eric and Tom go out, they will affectionately refer to each other as Fat Boy, Godzilla, Peanut-Head and Scrappy.

2.EATING OUT

When the bill arrives, Mark, Chris, Eric and Tom will each throw in a $20 , even though it’s only for $32.50. None of them will have anything smaller and none will actually admit they want change back.

When the women get their bill, out come the pocket calculators.

3.MONEY

A man will pay $2 for a $1 item he needs.

A woman will pay $1 for a $2 item that she doesn’t need, but it’s on sale.

4.BATHROOMS

A man has five items in his bathroom: a toothbrush, shaving cream, razor, a bar of soap, and a towel from the Marriott.

The average number of items in the typical woman’s bathroom is 337. A man would not be able to identify most of these items.

5.ARGUMENTS

A woman has the last word in any argument.

Anything a man says after that… is the beginning of a new argument.

6.CATS

Women love cats.

Men say they love cats, but when women aren’t looking, men kick cats.

7.FUTURE</ I>

A woman worries about the future until she gets a husband.

A man never worries about the future until he gets a wife.

8.SUCCESS

A successful man is one who makes more money than his wife can spend.

A successful woman is one who can find such a man.

9.MARRIAGE

A woman marries a man expecting he will change, but he doesn’t.

A man marries a woman expecting that she won’t change < /I>, and she does.

10.DRESSING UP

A woman will dress up to go shopping, water the plants, empty the garbage, answer the phone, read a book, and get the mail.

A man will dress up for weddings and funerals.

11.NATURAL

Men wake up as good-looking as they went to bed.

Women somehow deteriorate during the night.

12.OFFSPRING

Ah, children. A woman knows all about her children. She knows about dentist appointments and romances, best friends, favorite foods, secret fears and hopes and dreams.

A man is vaguely aware of some short people living in the house

Well I guess no one wanted to play my game or see my house so I’m not going to do either anymore. Owell it was worth a try!

 In other news: ONE WEEK UNTIL I GO TO ALABAMA!

Excited cant ya tell?! Yup one week until I go to Alabama for J’s officer graduation ceremony! YAY! We made it through the first part it’s all smooth sailing from here!

I have A LOT to do before I leave! BOO KOOS of school work; laundry and just surviving basically! I really hope I can get all the school work done ugg! I really hate school I just thought I would let everyone know that! Well I just thought I would post something since I hadn’t since Friday!

 Sorry I dont have much to talk about! But I hope everyone had a great weekend and has a great week ahead! I’ll look forward to reading all the new blogs you girls have posted!

Ok so after reading another blog I just recently found (Cheaper than Therapy go read her you’ll love her!) She has a flicker group who posts pictures of what she wears everyday! I thought that might be fun! So I thought I might ask who wants to do it with me! I thought it might be an interesting way for me to have a picture of myself everyday! So who wants to play along?! I think it will be super fun! We’d just post our pictures on here everyday in our daily post!

Also, I have promised to make a video of my house because a few of you have asked to see it and since it is semi clean right now I’ll make a video tonight after I get home from work so you all can finally see my loverly abode! Trick is it’s going to be password protected because well honestly I dont want everyone in creation seeing my house! So if you are interested leave me a comment on here asking for it & I’ll email you the password! I’m really excited! Oh yeah leave me your email some how!

In other news I’m really proud of myself today! I got up and took a shower and made myself actually look nice (so much for a few hours of work!) but I will definately be taking a few pictures tonight and might post them along with my video tonight! I wish I had the time and energy and wasnt so lazy everyday to make myself look nice! I really feel a lot better about myself when I do!

 So I’m going to start the photos of what I wore today with a few people who’s style I emulate……
